Florence

Frollo:
Tell me about Florence
And the Renaissance
Tell me about Bramante
And Dante's 'Inferno'

Gringoire:
In Florence they say
That the Earth would be round
And that there would be another
Continent in this world

Ships have already set sail on the ocean
To find the gateway to the Indies route

Frollo:
Luther will rewrite the New Testament
And we are at the dawn of a splitting world

Gringoire:
A man named Gutenberg
Has changed the face of the world

Frollo:
On the presses of Nuremberg
They print every second

Gringoire:
Poems on paper
Speeches and pamphlets

Both:
New ideas
That will sweep everything away

Gringoire:
The small things always overcome the big ones
And literature will kill architecture

Frollo:
School books will kill cathedrals
The Bible will kill the Church and man will kill God

This will kill that

Both:
Ships have already set sail on the ocean
To find the gateway to the Indies route
Luther will rewrite the New Testament
And we are at the dawn of a splitting world

This will kill that
This will kill that
